Title: post suggestion please read!
lipton_lover - February 20, 2008 04:39 PM (GMT)
Being a debate forum, a lot of us post HUGE posts, that can be a pain to read. I usually only read the first part, and skip the rest lol. The reason these posts are so intimidating is mostly because it's just one big huge block of text, one of the reasons why we have double space, though unfortunately we can't use it here. So please please PLEASE add a blank line or two between sections of your post! Some of us already do it, but others don't. It makes it much easier to read, so again please please PLEASE do it.

Yeah, I agree it's much easier to read that way. However, since we have a freedom of speech and expression, really, we can't really regulate and legislate issues about people's writing. I agree that it should be a suggestion that everyone should keep in mind; it makes things quite a bit easier to read. Honestly, I can't stress the importance of paragraphs. They make life so much better, haha.

Good point. Can't be law, but is a lovely suggestion.

no disrespect meant, but I never said it should be law I quite specifically proposed the idea as a suggestion for just that reason :)

Sorry, I misinterpreted your intentions. You see, typically when things are posted in the Suggestion area, they're suggestions for rules and policies, not just suggestions. Those types of suggestions tend to flock to specific instances rather than global uses.
